List of hazardous properties

The detailed interpretation of hazardous properties, the test and measurement methods to be applied as well as the reference values to be used in evaluations are provided for in separate legal rules.




H1

'Explosive': solid, liquid, plastic or gelatinous substances and preparations which may also react exothermically without atmospheric oxygen thereby quickly evolving gases, and which, under defined test conditions, detonate, quickly deflagrate, or explode upon pressure or heating

H2

'Oxidizing': substances and preparations which exhibit highly exothermic reactions when in contact with other substances, particularly flammable substances

H3-A

'Flammable':- liquid substances and preparations having a low flash point (including extremely flammable substances and preparations)- substances and preparations which may catch fire in contact with air at ambient temperature- solid substances and preparations which may readily catch fire after brief contact with a source of ignition and which continue to burn or to be consumed after removal of the source of ignition- gaseous substances and preparations which are flammable in air at normal temperature and pressure- substances and preparations which, in contact with water or damp air, evolve flammable gases in dangerous quantities

H3-B

'Less flammable': liquid substances and preparations having a low flash point

H4

'Irritant': non-corrosive substances and preparations which, through immediate, prolonged or repeated contact with the skin or mucous membrane, can cause inflammation

H5

'Harmful': substances and preparations which, if they are inhaled or ingested or if they penetrate the skin, may cause death or acute health risks

H6

'Toxic': substances and preparations (including very toxic substances and preparations) which, if they are inhaled or ingested or if they penetrate the skin even in small amounts may cause death or acute health risks

H7

'Carcinogenic': substances and preparations which, if they are inhaled or ingested or if they penetrate the skin or mucous membrane, may induce cancer or increase its incidence

H8

'Corrosive': substances and preparations which may destroy living tissue on contact

H9

'Infectious': substances containing viable micro-organisms or their toxins which are known or reliably believed to cause disease in man or other living organisms

H10

'Toxic for reproduction and progeny development': substances and preparations which, if they are inhaled or ingested or if they penetrate the skin or mucous membrane, may disturb, usually prohibit reproduction or cause morphological or functional defects in the progeny or increase their incidence

H11

'Mutagenic': substances and preparations which, if they are inhaled or ingested or if they penetrate the skin or mucous membrane, may induce genetic defects or increase their incidence

H12

Substances and preparations which release toxic or very toxic gases in contact with water, air or an acid

H13

Substances and preparations capable by any means, after disposal, of yielding another substance, e.g. a leachate, which possesses any of the characteristics listed above

H14

'Ecotoxic': substances and preparations which present immediate or delayed risks for one or more sectors of the environment or change the state, natural ecological balance or biodiversity of the environment Annex 3 to Act XLIII of 2000

National Definition

National definition of waste used for the purpose of transboundary movements of waste exists in Iceland.

According to regulation no. 737/2003, on waste, wastes are substances or objects, which individuals or legal entities decide to or are required to dispose of in a certain manner, cf. Annex I to regulation no. 184/2002 on a list of hazardous wastes and other wastes.


National definition of hazardous waste used for the purpose of transboundary movements of waste exists in Iceland.

According to regulation no. 806/1999 amended with regulation no. 169/2002 on hazardous wastes, hazardous wastes are wastes marked with an asterisk * in Annex I of the regulation no. 184/2002 amended with regulation no. 428/2003, on a list of hazardous wastes and other wastes, and also other wastes which exhibit one or more properties listed in the Annex III to regulation No. 184/2002 amended with regulation no. 428/2003.


Iceland regulates/controls additional wastes as hazardous that are not included in Art. 1 (1)a of the Basel Convention and would be controlled for the purpose of transboundary movements pursuant to Art. 1 (1)b.

National legislation, cf. regulation no. 184/2002 amended with regulation no. 428/2003, is in accordance with Commission Decisions 2000/532/EC, 2001/118/EC, 2001/119/EC and Council Decision 2001/573/EC.

In Iceland there are no wastes other than those pursuant to Art. 1 (1)a and/or Art. 1 (1)b of the Basel Convention that require special consideration when subjected to transboundary movement.




Restrictions on Transboundary Movement

Amendment to the Basel Convention

Iceland is in a preparatory process of implementing the amendment to the Basel Convention (Decision III/1).







Restrictions on export for final disposal and for recovery

Iceland restricts the export of hazardous wastes and other wastes for final disposal and for recovery.


The Regulation (EEC) 259/93 on the supervision and control of shipments of waste within, into and out of the EC (and EEA), has been in force since its implementation by regulation No. 377/1994.
All exports of waste for disposal are prohibited except to EFTA countries and Member States of the European Community (Regulation no. 377/1994, cf. Article 14 in Regulation 259/93/EEC).
Exports for recovery are prohibited except to countries to which the OECD decision applies, countries which are Parties to the Basel Convention and/or countries with which Iceland has concluded bilateral agreements (cf. Article 16 in Regulation (EEC) 259/93); and all exports of wastes to ACP States are prohibited. Hazardous wastes are only exported from Iceland to countries to which the OECD decision applies.





Restrictions on import for final disposal and for recovery

Iceland restricts the import of hazardous wastes and other wastes for final disposal and for recovery.


The Regulation (EEC) 259/93 on the supervision and control of shipments of waste within, into and out of the EC (and EEA), has been in force since its implementation by regulation No. 377/1994.
Imports of wastes for disposal are prohibited except from EFTA countries and Member States of the European Community, countries which are Parties to the Basel Convention or countries which Iceland has concluded bilateral agreements (cf. Article 19 in Regulation (EEC) 259/93).
Imports of waste for recovery are prohibited except from countries to which the OECD decision applies, countries which are Parties to the Basel Convention and/or countries which Iceland has concluded bilateral agreements (cf. Article 21 in Regulation (EEC) 259/93).





Restrictions on transit

Iceland restricts the transit of hazardous wastes and other wastes.


The Regulation (EEC) 259/93 on the supervision and control of shipments of waste within, into and out of the EC (and EEA), has been in force since its implementation by regulation No. 377/1994.
Notification to competent authorities is required (cf. Articles 12, 23 and 24 in Regulation (EEC) 259/93).




Reduction and/or Elimination of Hazardous Waste Generation

National strategies/policies

Production of hazardous wastes and other wastes shall be reduced as much as possible. Reuse and recovery shall be encouraged to reduce the amount of waste for disposal. The use of economic instruments shall be increased for achieving these goals. Certain activities are required to submit green accounts.







Legislation, regulations and guidelines

Act No. 7/1998, on hygiene and environmental control; Regulation No. 737/2003, on waste; Regulation No. 806/1999, amended with regulation no. 169/2002 on hazardous wastes; Regulation No. 809/1999, on waste oils; Regulation No. 609/1996 amended with regulation no. 682/1999, on packaging and packaging waste; and Regulation No. 785/1999 amended with regulation no. 849/2000 and no. 48/2001, on operating licenses for activities that can cause pollution, prescribes the use of best available techniques.







Measures taken by industries/waste generators

Implementation of environmental management systems.






Transboundary Movement Reduction Measures

National strategies/policies

Management of wastes within the State is encouraged, but it is recognized that small quantities of hazardous wastes may make specialized installations uneconomic.
